  • Puppies Behind Bars

    Has your child ever asked you for a puppy? They are so cute and cuddly that we all can understand why a child would want one. Having a dog can bring so much fun and joy into our lives but they also require a lot of time and patience amongst other things. Kids usually do not think about or may not understand...

  • Things To Do In The Car

    It's holiday time again which may mean long drives to see family or friends. During these longs drives your built-in or portable DVD player comes in handy to distract your children. Although a great invention and it's nice for your child to have some entertainment in the car, these days too many...

  • Would You Accidentally Run Over Your Own Family?

    When I saw the headline for this story, it immediately caught my attention. Before looking into the entire story, I had to wonder - Who could run over their family? Was it intentional? What were the circumstances? Would you accidentally run over your own family? Well, the details were much different...

  • Cooking kids: Summer camps that last a lifetime

    OK. So here’s the latest in summer camps: cooking camp. For a small fortune, we sent our 7-year-old son last week to learn all about kitchen sanitation, grocery shopping, veggie chopping and bread baking. Of course the best way to learn is by doing, so at camp he made his own lunch and washed his own...

  • Jon & Kate Plus 8

    We started enjoying watching this family not long ago because we thought they were, well, fun to watch. Being a parent of two and watching parents of 8 and their struggles (lack of sleep; dealing with constant noise & crying, etc) helps to make things a little bit easier to handle. Just knowing that...

  • Panacea Blue Crab Festival

    Our family and some friends went to the Blue Crab Festival in Panacea this year to enjoy some fun in the sun and some great seafood. Although I am very sensitive to being in the sun too long, this was well worth it! The Blue Crab Festival offers all sorts of fun outdoor activities, along with great seafood...

  • Considering Grassroots Free School and the Summerhill education philosophy

    I'm considering transferring my 7-year-old son to a local private school--Grassroots Free School--that’s structured according to the philosophies of England’s Summerhill School. This educational model is based on the premise that, given the opportunity, children will learn on their own because of...

  • welcome to the good life

    "The world of achievement has always belonged to the optimist." — Harold Wilkins This week so far has been a pretty easy one (mainly because all of the meetings I dread going to were cancelled) and I know it will continue to be. It's next week that will be killer, even though it's the...

  • stressed to the max

    "The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book." — Author Unknown I'm counting down the days until spring break. Is that bad? I'm under so much pressure. My independent study professor seems to forget that her class isn't the only one I'm taking. I take on way more...
